I adore Elsa Peretti designs. I have bean earrings, a DBTY necklace, and the wire ring in gold; a bone cuff and bottle pendant in silver. I consider these absolute classics.
I wanted to add a silver Peretti ring to my collection for the summer and was very drawn to the Sevillana. I tried it on at the boutique and loved how it looked and felt but found myself hesitant to pay almost $700 for a silver ring when I have much cheaper similarly minimalist sterling silver rings in my collection already. Is it because Sevillana is less instantly identifiable as Peretti than, say, the bone cuff? I'm aware that Tiffany's upcharges drastically for the designer name but am usually happy to pay the price for the intellectual property of a genius like Peretti.
I have the funds to buy it without a problem and keep thinking about those beautifully modern, sinuous lines of the design. I also like the idea of having a complete set of Peretti silver pieces.
I found a few on resale sites for less than half the retail price; however, I have a wonderful home boutique and SA who I want to patronize and would be plagued by fears it's fake. I wear the bone cuff and bottle almost every day in the summer, and this would be worn daily along with them. Should I stop overthinking and just get it?
Thank you for reading my novella
Any input is appreciated!
